Demirli Atici S, Canda AE, Terzi MC. Are current scales adequate for assessing quality of life after cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy? World J Clin Cases 2025; 13:105884. [DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v13.i22.105884] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2025] [Revised: 04/05/2025] [Accepted: 04/21/2025] [Indexed: 05/14/2025] Open
Abstract
Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are complex surgical procedures that are often used to treat advanced cancers of the abdominal cavity with peritoneal metastasis. Although these treatments can be lifesaving, patients often experience a significant decrease in their overall quality of life (QoL), especially in the early stages of recovery, owing to the physical burden of surgery and the effects of chemotherapy. Many traditional QoL questionnaires have been used to measure CRS and HIPEC. However, these classical current QoL assessment tools often fail to capture the unique challenges faced by this population, including bowel dysfunction, stoma-related distress, and long-term survivorship issues. Therefore, additional parameters that assess bowel function and stoma opening status and especially patient-reported outcome measures would be useful in QoL measurements to provide a more detailed understanding of recovery and general well-being in these patients.

Evaluating the Impact of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) on Interval and Secondary Debulking in Ovarian Cancer: A Systematic Review. Cancers (Basel) 2025; 17:904. [PMID: 40075751 PMCID: PMC11898962 DOI: 10.3390/cancers17050904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2025] [Revised: 03/03/2025] [Accepted: 03/04/2025] [Indexed: 03/14/2025] Open
Abstract
Background/Objectives: Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) was revealed as a promising adjunct to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) in the treatment of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). This review evaluated the impact HIPEC had on survival outcomes, recurrence patterns and safety in patients that underwent HIPEC in conjunction with interval and secondary CRS for advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer. Methods: A thorough search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar to identify relevant studies published until 1 January 2025. The studies were assessed for survival outcomes, recurrence patterns, safety, and quality of life. The risk of bias was evaluated using the ROB 2 tool for randomized and ROBINS-I for non-randomized articles. The results are presented narratively, highlighting key findings, comparing results and assessing inconsistencies and limitations. Results: HIPEC demonstrated significant improvements in progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), particularly in cases with optimal cytoreduction (CC-0/CC-1). The recurrence patterns showed a reduction in peritoneal dissemination with HIPEC, although extraperitoneal recurrences were reported in some cases. Most studies reported comparable morbidity rates between HIPEC and non-HIPEC groups, with acceptable safety profiles. The variability in the HIPEC protocols and the limited quality-of-life and cost-effectiveness data were noteworthy limitations. Conclusions: HIPEC, when performed during interval or secondary CRS, offers survival benefits and can modify recurrence patterns in advanced EOC, although challenges related to protocol standardization, patient selection, and long-term outcomes persist. Future research should focus on multicenter trials with uniform protocols, long follow-up periods and patient-centered outcomes to further validate the role of HIPEC in clinical practice.

Abstract
PURPOSE Surgical excision of metastases is the only curative treatment strategy in peritoneal carcinomatosis management, and the completeness of tumor resection determines the success of the surgery. Tumor-specific fluorescence-guided probes can improve the outcomes of cytoreductive surgery and thereby prognosis. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the feasibility of fluorescently labeled ultrasmall porous silica nanoparticles (UPSN) for image-guided resection of peritoneally disseminated tumors of different origins. METHODS Ultrasmall fluorescent nanoprobes were synthesized and characterized for their physicochemical properties and stability. Tumor-specific uptake and biodistribution profiles were evaluated in syngeneic CT26 colorectal and KPC-689 pancreatic cancer murine models. The practicability of real-time optical UPSN-guided resection was examined in the CT26 colorectal cancer model using a surgical stereomicroscope. Quantitative measurements of tumor sensitivity and specificity were performed. Histopathological examination validated in vivo findings about tumor-specific accumulation and safety of ultrasmall fluorescent probes. RESULTS As-synthesized UPSNs were successfully surface modified with Cy5 or Cy3 dyes maintaining sub-15 nm size and near neutral charge which is beneficial for optimized in vivo pharmacokinetics. UPSN-Cy5 demonstrated high tumor-specific uptake and favorable biodistribution profiles in peritoneal metastasis models of CT26 and KPC tumors. Dye-conjugated UPSN enabled resection of microscopic lesions and achieved a higher tumor-to-background ratios in comparison to FDA-approved indocyanine green (ICG) dye in both models. Microscopic evaluation showed tumor localization and off-target safety profile of the UPSN-Cy5. CONCLUSION Ultrasmall fluorescent probes were effective in surgical resection of peritoneal metastases with high sensitivity and specificity, thus emerging as promising tumor agnostic agents for image-guided cancer surgery.

Electronic symptom monitoring after lung cancer surgery: establishing a core set of patient-reported outcomes for surgical oncology care in a longitudinal cohort study. Int J Surg 2024; 110:6591-6600. [PMID: 38896873 PMCID: PMC11486944 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000001855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Electronic symptom monitoring via patient-reported outcomes in surgical oncology is limited owing to lengthy instruments and non-specific items in common patient-reported outcome instruments. To establish electronic symptom monitoring through a clinically relevant and fit-for-purpose core set of patient-reported outcome in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS One qualitative (Cohort 1) and two prospective studies (Cohorts 2 and 3) were conducted between 2018 and 2022. Patients undergoing lung cancer surgery were recruited. Items of symptoms and daily functioning were generated through extensive interviews in Cohort 1 and incorporated into a smartphone-based platform to establish the electronic Perioperative Symptom Assessment for Lung surgery (ePSA-Lung). This instrument was finalized and validated in Cohort 2. Patients in Cohort 3 were longitudinally monitored for the first-year post-surgery using the validated ePSA-Lung. RESULTS In total, 1037 patients scheduled for lung cancer surgery were recruited. The 11-item draft PSA-Lung was generated based on qualitative interview with 39 patients and input from a Delphi study involving 42 experts. A 9-item ePSA-Lung was finalized by assessing 223 patients in the validation cohort; the results supported the instrument's understandability, reliability, sensitivity, and surgical specificity. In Cohort 3 ( n =775), compliance ranged from 63.21 to 84.76% during the 1-year follow-up after discharge. Coughing, shortness of breath, and disturbed sleep were the most severe symptoms after discharge. Longitudinally, patients who underwent single-port video-assisted thoracic surgery had a lower symptom burden than those who underwent multi-port video-assisted thoracic surgery or thoracotomy (all symptoms, P <0.001). CONCLUSIONS The ePSA-Lung is valid, concise, and clinically applicable as it supports electronic symptom monitoring in surgical oncology care. The need for long-term extensive care was identified for patients after discharge, even in early-stage cancer with potential curative treatment.

Quality of Life After Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC): Cancer Survivors' Perspective Through In-Depth Interviews. Ann Surg Oncol 2024; 31:7122-7132. [PMID: 39060692 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-024-15719-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND CRS/HIPEC patients face unique quality of life (QoL) challenges due to advanced disease (peritoneal carcinomatosis), the extent of procedure, and risk for long-term complications. Standard QoL questionnaires are generic, focusing on tumor type and standard treatments, and likely do not capture this select population's full experience, suggesting the need for tailored instruments. We aimed to characterize the QoL challenges faced by CRS/HIPEC cancer survivors and determine whether these were captured by a standard QoL questionnaire. PATIENTS AND METHODS An anonymous, semi-structured individual interview was conducted with CRS/HIPEC patients addressing their experience at diagnosis, challenges related to CRS/HIPEC, and access to CRS/HIPEC information. Verbatim transcripts were interpreted using thematic analysis. Code and theme identification was inductive. Questions addressing common themes that were not encompassed by a standard QoL questionnaire were developed. RESULTS We interviewed eight patients. Median age was 55 (range 30-71) years and 75% (n = 6) were women. Primary tumor sites included appendix (n = 4), ovarian (n = 3), and peritoneal mesothelioma (n = 1). Median time from CRS/HIPEC was 40.1 (range 3.1-216.3) months. Overall, 133 codes were identified and categorized into 9 themes. The most recurring were physical symptoms after CRS/HIPEC (specifically gastrointestinal symptoms), adjusting to survivorship, mental health, expectations from CRS/HIPEC, and access to care. A total of 22 questions that did not overlap with a standardized QoL questionnaire were developed. CONCLUSIONS There is an unmet need to understand the unique QoL challenges CRS/HIPEC patients encounter. Patient-centered QoL questionnaires based on CRS/HIPEC patient experiences can capture these unique challenges and help guide future studies and care.

Semin Oncol Nurs 2024; 40:151572. [PMID: 38246840 DOI: 10.1016/j.soncn.2023.151572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Revised: 11/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with gynecologic cancers experience a very high symptom burden that has a negative impact on their quality of life. This systematic review aims to identify the common co-occurring symptoms, the prevalence of common symptoms, common instruments used to measure symptoms, associated risk factors, and the symptom burden in patients with gynecologic cancers. DATA SOURCES A search of four databases (ie, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and CINAHL) was done from January 1, 2012, through September 5, 2022. A qualitative synthesis of the extant literature was performed using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines (PRISMA 2020). CONCLUSION A total of 118 studies met the prespecified inclusion criteria. Ninety-six symptoms were assessed across these studies. The top six symptoms and their grand mean prevalence rates were lack of energy (64.4%), fatigue (62.1%), abdominal pain (53.3%), depression (52.6%), concentration dysfunction (52.0%), and drowsiness (51.9%). Numerous methodologic challenges were evident across studies. Future research needs to develop a disease-specific symptom assessment measure, evaluate for risk factors associated with a higher symptom burden, and determine the impact of multiple symptoms on patient outcomes. IMPLICATION FOR NURSING PRACTICE The results are relevant for oncology clinicians to assess patients with gynecologic cancers for the presence of common symptoms and risk factors for higher symptom burden in the patients and to offer effective management interventions.

Abstract
Purpose Measuring health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in ovarian cancer patients is critical to understand the impact of disease and treatment. Preference-based HRQoL measures, called health state utilities, are used specifically in health economic evaluations. Real-world patient-reported data on HRQoL and health state utilities over the long-term course of ovarian cancer are limited. This study aims to determine HRQoL and health state utilities in different health states of ovarian cancer. Methods This cross-sectional, multicenter study included patients with stage III-IV ovarian cancer in six health states: at diagnosis, during chemotherapy, after cytoreductive surgery (CRS), after chemotherapy, in remission, and at first recurrence. HRQoL was measured using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Core Quality of Life Questionnaire C30, and the ovarian cancer-specific module OV28. Health state utilities were assessed using the EuroQol five-dimension five-level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire. Descriptive analyses were performed for each health state. Results Two hundred thirty-two patients participated, resulting in 319 questionnaires. Median age was 66 years. The lowest HRQoL was observed during chemotherapy and shortly after CRS. Physical and role functioning were most affected and the highest symptom prevalence was observed in the fatigue, nausea, pain, dyspnea, gastrointestinal, neuropathy, attitude, and sexuality domains. Patients in remission had the best HRQoL. Mean utility values ranged from 0.709 (±0.253) at diagnosis to 0.804 (±0.185) after chemotherapy. Conclusions This study provides clinicians with a valuable resource to aid in patient counseling and clinical decision-making. The utilities, in particular, are crucial for researchers conducting economic analyses to inform policy decisions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to evaluate the long-term efficacy of consolidation hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for patients with primary epithelial ovarian cancer. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent second-look surgery either with or without HIPEC after having complete or partial response to primary cytoreductive surgery and adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy between January 1991 and December 2003 at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital. The 10-year progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity within postoperative 28 days were investigated. RESULTS A total of 87 patients were identified, 44 (50.6%) received second-look surgery with HIPEC whereas 43 (49.4%) received only second-look surgery. The 10-year PFS and OS were significantly longer in the HIPEC group compared with the control group (PFS, 53.6% vs. 34.9%, log-rank p=0.009; OS, 57.0% vs. 34.5%, log-rank p=0.025). Multivariable analysis identified HIPEC as an independent favorable prognostic factor for PFS (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]=0.42; 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.23-0.77; p=0.005) but not for OS (adjusted HR=0.58; 95% CI=0.32-1.07; p=0.079). The more common adverse events in the HIPEC group were thrombocytopenia (90.9% vs. 68.3%, p=0.005), elevated liver enzymes (65.9% vs. 29.3%, p=0.002), and wound complications (18.2% vs. 2.4%, p=0.032). However, these adverse events were reversible and did not delay subsequent consolidation chemotherapy. CONCLUSION The consolidation HIPEC demonstrated a significant improvement in 10-year PFS but not OS, with acceptable toxicity in patients with primary epithelial ovarian cancer. Further randomized controlled trials are warranted to confirm these results.

[PMID: 37708912 DOI: 10.1016/s1470-2045(23)00396-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The OVHIPEC-1 trial previously showed that the addition of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to interval cytoreductive surgery resulted in improved progression-free and overall survival compared with cytoreductive surgery alone at 4·7 years of follow-up in patients with stage III epithelial ovarian cancer who were ineligible for primary cytoreduction. We report the final survival outcomes after 10 years of follow-up. METHODS In this open-label, randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, patients with primary epithelial stage III ovarian cancer were recruited at eight HIPEC centres in the Netherlands and Belgium. Patients were eligible if they were aged 18-76 years, had not progressed during at least three cycles of neoadjuvant carboplatin plus paclitaxel, had a WHO performance status score of 0-2, normal blood counts, and adequate renal function. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to undergo interval cytoreductive surgery without HIPEC (surgery group) or with HIPEC (100 mg/m2 cisplatin; surgery-plus-HIPEC group). Randomisation was done centrally by minimisation with a masked web-based allocation procedure at the time of surgery when residual disease smaller than 10 mm diameter was anticipated, and was stratified by institution, previous suboptimal cytoreductive surgery, and number of abdominal regions involved. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival and a secondary endpoint was overall survival, analysed in the intention-to-treat population (ie, all randomly assigned patients). This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00426257, and is closed. FINDINGS Between April 1, 2007, and April 30, 2016, 245 patients were enrolled and followed up for a median of 10·1 years (95% CI 8·4-12·9) in the surgery group (n=123) and 10·4 years (95% CI 9·5-13·3) in the surgery-plus-HIPEC group (n=122). Recurrence, progression, or death occurred in 114 (93%) patients in the surgery group (median progression-free survival 10·7 months [95% CI 9·6-12·0]) and 109 (89%) patients in the surgery-plus-HIPEC group (14·3 months [12·0-18·5]; hazard ratio [HR] 0·63 [95% CI 0·48-0·83], stratified log-rank p=0·0008). Death occurred in 108 (88%) patients in the surgery group (median overall survival 33·3 months [95% CI 29·0-39·1]) and 100 (82%) patients in the surgery-plus-HIPEC group (44·9 months [95% CI 38·6-55·1]; HR 0·70 [95% CI 0·53-0·92], stratified log-rank p=0·011). INTERPRETATION These updated survival results confirm the long-term survival benefit of HIPEC in patients with primary stage III epithelial ovarian cancer undergoing interval cytoreductive surgery.

Impact of warm saline irrigation, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy on postoperative pain in primary ovarian cancer from the KOV-HIPEC-01 randomized trial. Gynecol Oncol 2023; 177:32-37. [PMID: 37634257 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2023.08.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 08/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has emerged as a treatment option at the time of cytoreductive surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The effect of active warming of HIPEC on postoperative pain needs to be investigated. This study aimed to investigate whether HIPEC reduces postoperative pain. METHODS From the KOV-HIPEC-01 trial, a randomized controlled trial of HIPEC for advanced primary ovarian cancer, 184 patients with a residual tumor size <1 cm were randomly assigned to the HIPEC and control groups at a 1:1 ratio. The consumption of analgesics and pain scales were analyzed. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy was administered after cytoreductive surgery. The primary objective was to compare the consumption of opioids measured in morphine milligram equivalents and non-opioids measured as the maximum daily dose between the HIPEC and control groups. The secondary objective was to compare the minimum and maximum pain intensities on numeric rating scales between the two groups using a linear mixed model. RESULTS Lesser consumption of non-opioids, with a lower mean maximum daily dose on postoperative days 1 and 2, was observed. The HIPEC group also experienced lower maximum pain intensities on postoperative day 1. No overall differences in the minimum or maximum pain intensities were observed on postoperative day 7. CONCLUSION The addition of HIPEC to cytoreductive surgery did not lead to increased postoperative pain, as demonstrated by a reduction in the use of analgesics and lower scores on postoperative pain scales during the early postoperative period.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the worst prognostic gynaecological cancer and represents a grave clinical and social problem. Therefore, the study aimed to assess female patients' emotional, cognitive, physical, and social quality of life. The study included 100 patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer and treated with chemotherapy in a day hospital setting at the Department of Radiotherapy and Gynaecological Oncology at the Wielkopolska Oncology Centre in Poznań. The patients were given a standard treatment regimen: paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 in a 3 h infusion and carboplatin at an AUC of 6 (5-7) following Calvert as a 1 h infusion for six cycles administered every 21 days. In addition, standardised questionnaires of the Polish version of the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQOV28 were used. The analysis of the collected material shows that the patients reported the highest level of general health and quality of life at the study's first stage, i.e., before chemotherapy (mean value of 59.67 points). In contrast, the patients' lowest level of general health and quality of life was observed in the fourth stage of the study (mean value of 45.04 points). The problem of side effects, such as nausea and vomiting, affected the entire study group and was more troublesome in the final stage of treatment for all patients. In the study's first stage, the mean score on the nausea and vomiting symptom scale was 16 points; in the fourth stage, the mean score was 40.07. Of the clinical factors, the symptom of fatigue was the most severe health problem for the subjects. The mean score of the fatigue scale in the study's first stage was 37.11 points, while a score of 70.33 was obtained in the fourth stage of the research. The multivariate linear regression model showed that the lack of professional activity lowers quality of life, especially combined with other side effects of chemotherapy, including hair loss in Stage IV of the study. This study shows that women with ovarian cancer undergoing chemotherapy need exceptional support from psychologists, nurses, dieticians, and physiotherapists.

Abstract
Hyperthermic intraperitoneal administration of chemotherapy (HIPEC) increases local drug concentrations and reduces systemic side effects associated with prolonged adjuvant intraperitoneal exposure in patients affected by either peritoneal malignancies or metastatic diseases originating from gastric, colon, kidney, and ovarian primary tumors. Mechanistically, the anticancer effects of HIPEC have been poorly explored. Herein we documented that HIPEC treatment promoted miR-145-5p expression paired with a significant downregulation of its oncogenic target genes c-MYC, EGFR, OCT4, and MUC1 in a pilot cohort of patients with ovarian peritoneal metastatic lesions. RNA sequencing analyses of ovarian peritoneal metastatic nodules from HIPEC treated patients unveils HSF-1 as a transcriptional regulator factor of miR-145-5p expression. Notably, either depletion of HSF-1 expression or chemical inhibition of its transcriptional activity impaired miR-145-5p tumor suppressor activity and the response to cisplatin in ovarian cancer cell lines incubated at 42 °C. In aggregate, our findings highlight a novel transcriptional network involving HSF-1, miR145-5p, MYC, EGFR, MUC1, and OCT4 whose proper activity contributes to HIPEC anticancer efficacy in the treatment of ovarian metastatic peritoneal lesions.

Cytoreductive Surgery with the PlasmaJet Improved Quality-of-Life for Advanced Stage Ovarian Cancer Patients. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:3947. [PMID: 37568763 PMCID: PMC10416900 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15153947] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 07/29/2023] [Accepted: 08/01/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Knowledge of quality-of-life after cytoreductive surgery is important to counsel patients with advanced-stage epithelial ovarian cancer prior to surgery. The aim of this study was to determine whether the use of the PlasmaJet Surgical device during cytoreductive surgery has an effect on the quality-of-life of patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. METHODS Data included in this prospective observational study were derived from the PlaComOv study, in which patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer were randomly assigned to have cytoreductive surgery with or without adjuvant use of the PlasmaJet. Quality-of-life was measured before surgery and one, six, 12, and 24 months after surgery with three questionnaires: the EORTC QLQ-C30, QLQ-OV28, and EQ-5D-5L. RESULTS Between 2018 and 2020, 326 patients were enrolled in the trial. The overall response rate was high, with the lowest response rate at 24 months of 77%. At 6 months, quality-of-life was higher in the intervention group (95%CI 0.009; 0.081, p = 0.045). At 12 months, quality-of-life was higher in the intervention group with fewer symptoms of fatigue, appetite loss, and diarrhea (95%CI 0.6; 10,0, p = 0.027); similarly, patients in the intervention group reported a better body image (95%CI -14.2; -3.0, p = 0.003) and a higher score on the visual analog scale (95%CI 1.99; 11.15, p = 0.005). At 24 months postoperatively, no further difference was found between the two groups except for pain (95%CI -12.9; -0.8, p = 0.027) and body image (95%CI -13.808; -0.733, p = 0.029). A higher quality-of-life in the intervention group was partially explained by the mediator 'surgery outcome'. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated knowledge of patients' quality-of-life until two years after cytoreductive surgery. The use of the PlasmaJet Surgical device during cytoreductive surgery leads to a higher quality-of-life than conventional surgery with electrocoagulation alone. Even after adjustment for the mediator of surgical outcome, a higher quality-of-life was seen in patients who had surgery with the use of the PlasmaJet device.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastases from breast cancer (PMBC) tend to occur late in the disease course and are challenging to manage. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) provide peritoneal disease control in other malignancies and may achieve similar results in PMBC. We assessed intraperitoneal disease control and outcomes in two PMBC patients after CRS/HIPEC. Patient 1, diagnosed at age 64, had hormone-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative lobular carcinoma treated with mastectomy. Prior to salvage CRS/HIPEC at age 72, five cycles of intraperitoneal chemotherapy via an indwelling catheter failed to control recurrent peritoneal disease. Patient 2, diagnosed at age 52, had hormone-positive/HER2-negative ductal-lobular carcinoma and received lumpectomy, hormonal therapy, and target therapy. Prior to salvage CRS/HIPEC at age 59, she had recurring ascites that was resistant to hormonal therapy and required multiple paracenteses. Both underwent complete CRS/HIPEC with melphalan. The only major complication was anemia, which required a transfusion in both patients. They were discharged on postoperative days 8 and 13, respectively. Patient 1 had peritoneal recurrence 26 months post-CRS/HIPEC and died of disease at 49 months. Patient 2 never had peritoneal recurrence and died of extraperitoneal progression at 38 months. In conclusion, CRS/HIPEC is safe and can provide intraperitoneal disease and symptom control in select patients with PMBC. Thus, CRS/HIPEC can be offered to these rare patients who have failed standard treatments.

[PMID: 37089719 PMCID: PMC10115522 DOI: 10.1155/2023/6412679] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 04/25/2023]
Abstract
Objective To assess the clinical efficacy and safety of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for ovarian cancer. Methods From April 2018 to November 2021, 66 patients with ovarian cancer were admitted to our hospital and randomly allocated to undergo intravenous chemotherapy following CRS (the observation group) or CRS with HIPEC (the experimental group) using a parallel randomized technique, with 33 cases in each group. Clinical effectiveness, intraoperative and postoperative recovery, VEGF level, T-lymphocyte subpopulation cell level, adverse events, and patient survival were all outcome metrics. Results CRS plus HIPEC was associated with significantly higher clinical efficacy versus CRS alone (P < 0.05). The difference in the intraoperative bleeding and operative time between the two groups did not meet the statistical standard (P > 0.05). Patients in the experimental group experienced shorter postoperative chemotherapy and length of hospital stay than those in the observation group (P < 0.05). CRS plus HIPEC resulted in significantly lower levels of VEGFA, VEGFB, and VEGFC and higher levels of CD3+, CD4+, and CD3+/CD4+ than CRS alone (P < 0.05). The two groups of patients had a similar incidence of adverse events (P > 0.05). The experimental group showed a longer median survival (25 months) and a 1-year survival rate (79.55%) than the observation group (22 months, 49.56%) (log rank = 20.411, P < 0.05). A significantly lower 1-year recurrence rate was observed in the experimental group than in the observation group (P < 0.05). Conclusion CRS plus HIPEC effectively improves the clinical efficacy of ovarian cancer patients, prolongs the survival of patients, and improves the level of VEGF and T-lymphocyte subpopulation cells, with a manageable safety. In addition, the treatment method can improve the therapeutic effect, reduce the toxic and side effects, and improve the immunity of the body, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

The review consisted of 1) Ovarian cancer: long-term follow-up data, new poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, overall survival (OS) issues with PARP inhibitor monotherapy, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and antibody-drug conjugate; 2) Cervical cancer: surgery in early stage disease, therapy for locally advanced stage and advanced, metastatic, or recurrent setting; and 3) Corpus cancer: follow-up regimen, immune checkpoint inhibitor, WEE1 inhibitor, selective inhibitor of nuclear export. A special note was made on the withdrawal of PARP inhibitor from the market for heavily pretreated ovarian cancer patients based on the final OS results of ARIEL-4 and SOLO-3 due to concerns of increased risk of death.

Cost-effectiveness of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy following interval cytoreductive surgery for stage III-IV ovarian cancer from a randomized controlled phase III trial in Korea (KOV-HIPEC-01). Gynecol Oncol 2023; 170:19-24. [PMID: 36608383 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2022.12.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the addition of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) following interval cytoreductive surgery (ICS) for stage III-IV ovarian cancer from a randomized controlled phase III trial. METHODS A comparative cost-effective analysis was performed using a Markov health-state transition model derived from the current trial cohort (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01091636). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was evaluated by dividing the incremental costs by incremental quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) with a time horizon of 10 years. Costs were calculated from the perspective of Korean healthcare, and health utility values were extracted from published sources. RESULTS Based on data from the trial, the mean QALY in the ICS group was 7.16 compared to 10.8 in ICS followed by the HIPEC group. With an incremental QALY of 3.64, the ICS followed by HIPEC, was estimated to obtain an ICER of KRW 954,598 (USD 708.3) per QALY. CONCLUSION The findings of the study suggest that ICS followed by HIPEC, is cost-effective with a significant gain in QALYs. These results may support the current reimbursement of HIPEC from Korean insurance services and the management of long-term conditions.

Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer is an aggressive disease of the female reproductive system and a leading cause of cancer death in women. Standard of care includes surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy, yet patients continue to experience a high rate of recurrence and metastasis. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) treatment in highly selective patients extends overall survival by nearly 12 months. The clinical studies are highly supportive of the use of HIPEC in the treatment of ovarian cancer, though the therapeutic approach is limited to academic medical centers. The mechanism underlying HIPEC benefit remains unknown. The efficacy of HIPEC therapy is impacted by several procedural and patient/tumor factors including the timing of surgery, platinum sensitivity, and molecular profiling such as homologous recombination deficiency. The present review aims to provide insight into the mechanistic benefit of HIPEC treatment with a focus on how hyperthermia activates the immune response, induces DNA damage, impairs DNA damage repair pathways, and has a synergistic effect with chemotherapy, with the ultimate outcome of increasing chemosensitivity. Identifying the points of fragility unmasked by HIPEC may provide the key pathways that could be the basis of new therapeutic strategies for ovarian cancer patients.

Comparative Survival Outcomes of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy, Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy and Intravenous Chemotherapy for Primary Advanced Ovarian Cancer: A Network Meta-Analysis. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12031111. [PMID: 36769760 PMCID: PMC9917421 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12031111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to compare the survival outcomes and adverse events of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IP)and intravenous chemotherapy (IP)for primary advanced ovarian cancer. METHODS PubMed, CENTRAL (Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials), Embase, Web of Science and Scopus were searched using multiple terms for primary advanced ovarian cancer, including randomized controlled trials and comparative studies in both Chinese and English (up to date 15 August 2022). Outcomes include overall survival, progression-free survival and adverse events. The data were pooled and reported as hazard ratio (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scales were used to assess the risk of bias in the included comparative study. The Cochrane Collaboration's Risk of Bias Tool was used for randomized controlled trials. RESULTS In total, 32 studies, including 6347 patients and 8 different platinum-based chemotherapy regimens, were included in this network meta-analysis. Our analysis results showed that HIPEC2 (carboplatin with area under the curve 10) exhibited a statistically significant OS benefit compared to IV, weekly dose-dense chemotherapy and HIPEC1 (cisplatin with 75/100 mg/m2). Intraperitoneal plus intravenous chemotherapy was associated with a statistically significantly better likelihood of overall survival compared to IV. For progression-free survival, our statistical results only suggest a better progression-free survival in ovarian cancer patients treated with HIPEC1 compared with weekly dose-dense chemotherapy. No evidence of difference was observed between the other comparison groups. Compared with the non-HIPEC group, HIPEC may had a higher incidence of electrolyte disturbances (≥grade 3). CONCLUSION Our statistical analysis suggests that the groups receiving HIPEC2 had a better OS than the groups receiving IV, weekly dose-dense chemotherapy and HIPEC1. For PFS, our analysis only showed HIPEC1 is better than IV. Moreover, HIPEC may lead to a higher incidence of electrolyte disturbances (≥grade 3). HIPEC therapy for advanced ovarian cancer is currently controversial.

Gynecol Oncol 2022; 167:547-556. [PMID: 36273925 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2022.10.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 10/08/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The value of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) at the time of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is controversial and its use remains experimental in most national and international guidelines. We wished to systematically evaluate all available evidence. METHODS A comprehensive review of data from MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted from the first report on HIPEC in EOC till April 3, 2022. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between the HIPEC and control groups. This meta-analysis was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42021265810). RESULTS Fifteen studies (10 case-control studies and 5 randomized controlled trials [RCTs]) were included in the present meta-analysis. Based on the time interval between the last systemic chemotherapy exposure and timing of CRS +/- HIPEC, all studies and patients' cohorts we classified into recent (<6 months; n = 9 studies/patients cohorts) and non-recent (≥6 months, n = 8 studies/patients cohorts) chemotherapy exposure groups. In the recent chemotherapy exposure group, HIPEC was associated with improvement of both PFS (HR, 0.585; 95% CI, 0.422-0.811) and OS (HR, 0.519; 95% CI, 0.346-0.777). On the contrary, in the non-recent chemotherapy exposure group, HIPEC failed to significantly affect PFS (HR, 1.037; 95% CI, 0.684-1.571) or OS (HR, 0.932; 95% CI, 0.607-1.430). Consistent results were observed in subsequent sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION Our present meta-analysis demonstrates that the value of HIPEC at CRS for EOC appears to depend on the timing of the last systemic chemotherapy exposure. Future trials are awaited to define the role of HIPEC in EOC.
